SAFEContractor achieved again by Shipshape Cleaning

Friday, March 30th, 2012

Shipshape Cleaning are pleased to announce that they have once again achieved their accreditation with SAFEContractor.

It is an important accreditation to us and we invest a lot of time and money as a company ensuring our Health & Safety documentation is continuely reviewed and kept up to date with any new H&S practices or legislation.

We take H&S very seriously and ensure all staff are fully trained on H&S, they understand the H&S implications of the chemicals they use on a daily basis and inform us immediately of any posing H&S risk on our sites.

We are pleased with our achievement again this year, as we have been SAFEContractor accrediated for 3 years now.

Why put up with a Bad Cleaning Service?

Monday, November 7th, 2011

Any form of change can be daunting and it is all too easy to be complacent and adopt the attitude ‘Better the Devil you know’

But that Devil could cost you money and you could be receiving a better service and greater value for money.

  • Why put up with bad service?  You can make the choice to change.
  • Why do you feel you are managing your cleaning contract, when you pay for that service?
  • Feel fed up with coming in each morning and despairing at the standards?

If you were not receiving good service or value for money concerning your personal affairs – would you put up with it?  I suspect not.  You would want the best.

Clients sometimes worry about the change over of cleaning companies, but once you make that leap of faith, you WILL get a good service, Shipshape Cleaning are committed to this.

We guarantee a smooth transition in your cleaning services, and we have many satisfied clients whom we have worked with from the start and vastly improved their cleaning service.

Clients have said:

“Shipshape dealt very professionally and swiftly with the challenges we had with unproductive personnel, with out any involvement from me.  It was reassuring to see both the Contracts Manager and Site Supervisor on site every evening until these challenges were resolved.” 

“From day one of the contract I felt I could rely on Shipshape Cleaning to resolve any issues and oversee the new team settling in.”

“I’d like to compliment the management team on the seamless transition at the beginning of the contract, and staff have noticed the increased levels of service and cleanliness.

“The staff are well trained and receive good supervision, the agreed specification is adhered to and other requests I make are carried out in a timely manner.”  

The comments above are just a few made by our customers. Take a look at the full testimonials on page  http://shipshapecleaning.co.uk/about/testimonials/.    When we tender for cleaning contracts, we can always provide up to date and relevant references.

Top Safety Accreditation for Shipshape Cleaning

Monday, December 14th, 2009

We have received our Acceditation Certificate today and are very pleased to announce that we have been successful in joining this leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record.

The SAFEcontractor programme recognises very high standards of health & safety practise amongst UK contractors.

Shipshape decided to start working towards achieving this award this summer, due to our ongoing hardwork at Shipshape with health & safety practices and procedures. 

We use an external health & safety company to write any health & safety documentation we need, which is reviewed regularly and specific to our contracts.  We also commit to full induction training for all our employees and we review staff training on a regular basis.

SAFEcontractor Accreditation is expected to enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal.

SAFEcontractor is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contract services.

Under the SAFEcontractor system, we went through a thorough vetting process, which examined our health & safety procedures and our track record for safe practice.  

Having passed this process, we are very pleased to make this announcement.
